I must add this: even "wild" gardens require maintenance. The Highline in NYC, which is pictured, may look wild, but its designer, Piet Oudolf, doesn't let his gardens do their natural thing, which is to morph and change through the years. He visits them and has the new plants that are grown through natural processes, such as seed distribution, runners, etc. removed, plants moved, and the garden held at its original design. This is labor intensive. The result is glorious, but it is not wild at all. The wildness is an illusion.

For some time, enlightened gardeners have grown away from contained, stiffly regimented beds organized around lawns in favor of free-form swaths of native plants, pollinators once considered weeds, grasses and wildflower meadows.

Thank you, Marlon.

We stood together, leaning back, staring up at the sky, waiting in a hilltop cemetery by a small country church in Nebraska, cows and prairie in all directions. I was...

We have had so many lovely remembrances of Kevin from the AIA, the Dallas Architectural Forum, the Garden and Landscape Designers Association (Ireland), and more.

Thank you all.

Thank you for all the kind comments, especially from Kevin's former students. He loved his work as a land planner and landscape architect, and he loved teaching.
